Dough distribution system for multiple mixing points
Ensure precise dough allocation across multiple production stages with a reliable system that seamlessly transfers mixture using motor-driven containers on dedicated rails, optimizing workflow efficiency.
Distributes and Transports Dough Mixtures Efficiently
The SNT – Dough Distribution System from GEA is designed to optimize the distribution of dough mixtures across multiple production lines for food manufacturers. This system utilizes motor-driven containers operating on a rail system to ensure precise transportation and distribution of mixtures, enhancing automation in pasta, snack, and cereal production. The SNT system supports continuous operation, receiving mixtures from dough mixers and delivering them to downstream processes via shuttling containers equipped with a lower discharge gate. Its design includes a motor-driven support structure managed by an encoder, ensuring precise container positioning. The system accommodates a variety of product types, including solids and slurries, making it versatile for different food processing applications. The included stainless-steel components and detachable feeding hopper streamline cleaning processes and prevent product stagnation, supporting hygienic production conditions. Furthermore, the system handles a capacity of up to 35 kg with options for operating 1-3 vessels on the same rail, providing scalability and flexibility in operations.
